The common people are actually very honest. If the country treats us well, then we also support the country.

Therefore, if Fusang's letter of credence is really spread, then it goes without saying that the entire Tang Dynasty, whether it is a farmer who is plowing land or a wealthy household who already has a small family business, will definitely be filled with righteous indignation after hearing the news Ask Datang to teach the bastard Fusang a lesson.

After all, in the eyes of the people of Datang today, looking down on Li Shimin means looking down on Datang, and looking down on Datang means looking down on all of them, so Datang has to teach them a lesson.

Anyway, with His Royal Highness the King of Qin here, teaching a small country outside the story, isn't that a matter of passing along, maybe you can make a fortune.

Although this matter is still being discussed, everyone here has figured it out now, needless to say, the next thing must be the same as this thought, and the crowd is so angry that they want to beat Fusang.

Now that the name of the teacher has been settled, the rest is the serious matter of fighting. Zhang Nuo has already outlined the basic process before, and the rest is how to operate in detail.

In this regard, needless to say, Zhang Nuo is definitely the clearest, but he also needs to discuss with these generals, after all, this is a real war of annihilating the country, and not one or two troops will be dispatched.

Moreover, it also involves a series of tasks such as transportation, attack, defense, and occupation, which cannot be decided at once.

Although Zhang Nuo's specific command and operations are not as good as these veterans in the army, he is still a veteran who has fought many battles. Coupled with his vision and understanding of Fusang, it goes without saying that this Fusang battle must be him. Take the lead.

"Everyone, if you want to fight Fusang, and at the lowest cost, it goes without saying that the three armies will use their lives. What I want to emphasize here is that the three armies must cooperate well!"

"This is not only a battle to fight for interests and win dignity for Datang, but also a rehearsal of the war when Datang will open up to the outside world in the future!"

"In the future, when we want to attack other countries, we will definitely have to go through the transportation of the navy. At the same time, we must also cooperate with the three armed forces when attacking. Now we are discussing the tactics and exploring the tactics!"

"We must not only win this battle, but also win beautifully, so as to lay a solid foundation for future battles!"

Chapter 756 Fuso Raiders

Zhang Nuo's words would set the tone for the entire upcoming military meeting.

That's right, from now on, it's not a discussion about whether or not to fight, but to push this matter directly to the level of the military council.

Of course, civil servants don't need to withdraw. After all, the victory or defeat of a war is definitely not just a matter of soldiers, but also related to many departments.

Just like the reason for dispatching troops just said for a long time, this is not resolved by the generals, let alone the logistics support, material transfer and development in Fusang. These things need civil servants to take various departments to go fixed.

But at least after Zhang Nuo had set the tone, the rest of the matter would be easy to handle. After all, the thinking had been straightened out. Everyone had full confidence in Zhang Nuo in this regard.

Zhang Nuo was also unambiguous. He turned his head and took out the topographic map of the entire East Asia region, pointing to the location of Busan in later generations and said,

"This place, according to the Korean name, should be called Busan. Not only is it an excellent port, but it is also the closest place to Fusang!"

"If our navy, land and air forces gather here and put the logistics supply base here, then we can use the shortest route to support Fusang!"

"At the same time, this place can also become the logistics base for the Battle of Fusang. In the future, all materials will enter Fusang from here, and the spoils from Fusang can also be directly transported to Busan Port by sea, and then transported to Pyongyang by land. to the city!"

Du Ruhui interrupted Zhang Nuo as soon as he said this.

"Your Highness, I would like to interrupt. The loot brought back is probably the silver mine His Highness mentioned earlier, so why don't you just take the sea route from there and enter Datang?"

"From my point of view, with my navy here, no one dares to stop my Tang's merchant ships on this sea, so wouldn't it be possible to enter our Tang territory faster by taking the sea route?"

Zhang Nuo glanced at Du Ruhui, sighed and replied,

"Do you think this king doesn't know the benefits of shipping it back directly? You don't know how much time you save. As the person who really brought the navy out, this king doesn't know the convenience of shipping?"

"But the fact is, it's not that the king is unwilling to do this, but that we simply don't have such strength! We don't have that many ships at all!"

As soon as Zhang Nuo said this, everyone was stunned. They thought of many reasons, but they didn't expect that it was because there were not enough boats.

It's no wonder that they don't know much about it, because they usually focus on warships, that is, the organization and power of the navy, but they really don't know the transportation capacity of the entire sea.

But since His Royal Highness King Qin, who knows the sea best, said that there are not enough ships and transport capacity, then don't think about it, it must be enough.

But what should be asked still has to be asked, especially Li Shimin. As the emperor, although he can't lead the army to conquer personally this time, he must understand all the military strategy of the Tang Dynasty here, otherwise there will be a fight, and his side I don't even know what the next move of the army is, so what about logistical support?

"Brother, tell me, why are there not enough boats? Don't we have a lot of boats now, and there are so many merchant ships!"

"Besides, if you go to Pyongyang by land, is there anything else to say?"

Zhang Nuo nodded, without hiding anything, he replied directly,

"This is for sure. My king's arrangement is naturally based on a comprehensive consideration!"

"First of all, let me tell you a situation. I don't know other places in Datang, but I know the production situation at the Pyongyang Port Shipyard!"

"So far, a total of 22 warships have been provided to the navy, all of which are three-masted sailing ships loaded with artillery. After all, it needs people to operate, and the navy currently has not enough people!"

"As for merchant ships, even if they are built at full capacity, so far, there are only 43 ships that have really sailed on the sea!"

"That's it, it's because the merchant ships don't need so many people, so those big chambers of commerce can gather so many people, otherwise, they can't eat these forty ships!"

"Of course, these ships are also the most advanced three-masted sailing ships. Needless to say, their transportation capacity can definitely meet the needs of ocean voyages. Once Datang's battle against Fusang begins, this king will also recruit more than half of the ships. As Datang's shipping force!"

Having said that, Zhang Nuo stopped Li Shimin who was about to speak,

"Don't ask me why I didn't recruit all of them. You have to know that the entire Goryeo, or Pyongyang alone, has supplied countless supplies to the Tang Dynasty. If the price of goods is soaring, it will be messed up!"

"Therefore, this king will not conscript all the merchant ships, but at least keep some of them, so that although the supply of goods is reduced, at least it will not be cut off!"

"At the same time, the answer to the question that Lao Du asked before is also the same. Because of the small number of ships and limited transportation capacity, I can only let the land transportation bear a little more pressure!"

"So, my king's arrangement is that whether it is the preparation of logistics materials before the war, the transportation of personnel, or the delivery of loot and supplies afterward, all of them will be transported by Pyongyang Port and Dengzhou Port!"

"In this way, the time for ships to sail at sea will be greatly reduced, so that the pressure on shipping will not be so great, but in turn, the pressure will fall on the land transportation side!"

"But the king has already arranged for people to build a railway from Pyongyang to the south. At the same time, the people's livelihood in Koryo is still to be developed, and the connection with Datang is not particularly close!"

"Just taking advantage of this opportunity, we don't recruit corvee, but directly hire local people to participate in the delivery of materials at a cheaper price!"
